3 team trade to get Emeka Okafor 

Post#1 » by statisback » Sun Jul 12, 2009 5:19 pm

Suns trade J Rich to Hornets
Hornets trade Posey and Mo Peterson to Bobcats
Bobcats trade Okafor to Suns

Bobcats do this because they have Nazr and Diop at center and need more shooters which they get.
Suns do this because they get a great defensive center and rebounder
Hornets do this since they get a 20-30 pt scorer in JRich

Why wouldnt the others do it? It benefits all three teams?

Hornets need another major offensive weapon which they get with J Rich
Bobcats get two more long range shooters which they need.

Hornets were trying to offload Chandler for expirings = they don't want salary ADDED, and JRich is paid more than those 2 combined, that's the main reason

And I doubt Brown dumps Okafor for those 2, they could get a lot more if they were trying to move him

Why beat around the bush, trade J-Rich and Tuck for Okafor and Augustin.

Then again, i don't think that would be happen either.

Lol I know your kidding but still. There is a reason the Bobcats traded J-Rich to us. They sure as hell don't want him back.
Plus I think the Bobcats like their team the way it is, I see them making their first appearance in the playoffs this year...

no chance. JRich is overpaid and the last thing the Hornets want is to add salary. Hell, they might think twice about adding a maxed out Brandon Roy on their roster.

It's no secret Kerr has been trying to trade J-Rich all off-season but nobody wants him

hell no.

Nazr and Diop are trash. No chance you guys get Okafor without dealing Amare to us.

Maybe have Tyson going to CHA, and PHX taking on Emeka and a throw in to match salaries and it's more pleasing for other teams. Other than that, this is never happening. lol
